In a gesture of solidarity following the gruesome killing of a French priest, Muslims on Sunday attended Catholic Mass in churches and cathedrals across France and beyond.
Reporters on the scene said that between 100 and 200 Muslims gathered at the towering Gothic cathedral in Rouen, only a few kilometers (miles) from Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, where the 85-year-old Rev. Jacques Hamel was killed by two teenage attackers on Tuesday.
“We’re very touched,” Archbishop Dominique Lebrun told broadcaster BFMTV. “It’s an important gesture of fraternity. They’ve told us, and I think they’re sincere, that it’s not Islam which killed Jacques Hamel.” …

Hmmmmm. I wonder if any will dare convert?
This article was also posted on the CNS website. One commenter there speculated that they were there to survey the cathedral for conversion to a mosque.
Hope they’re checking the muslims for guns, knives, and explosives before they let them in...
So did they bring knives or guns?
Many of the Muslims who attended the service in Rouen - including those with the banner - were Ahmadiyya Muslims, a minority sect which differs from mainstream Islam in that it doesn't regard Muhammad as the final prophet.
“Muslims go to Catholic Mass across France to show solidarity”
With whom?
Stop and frisk, Pierre!!
I wouldn’t even let them enter a church. They’re heathens,
What a curtain of smoke !
Muslims are very good at whinning and lying when it’s the convenient time ....
Now they felt the danger ....Sooooooo they can go to churches for the “good cause”
Fool me once... or even twice..
At this point, who can believe them?
Could be that some muzzies have come to the realization that ‘fitting in’ to their new country is preferable to “getting shipped out” ... back to Krapistan.
And THAT, kind sir, is precisely why Christianity is shriveling away.
Phony as a bunch of $3 bills.
They couldn’t afford the upkeep.
Canterbury is £19k per day to run and repair.
And Catholics won’t even allow non-Catholics to participate in their closed caucus forums here on Free Republic. And why not?
They are considered heretics by the true believers.
Sorry, Pal. But I have no respect whatsoever for these godless pagans. Their own religion (if you wanna’ call it that) FORBIDS them entry into anything Christian or Jewish.
I’m not forbidding them to go into Christian churches . . . Their own religion is. Sorry, I have no use for any of them. If they came into my church, I’d wonder if they were going to blow everybody up. They would have to convert before I’d let them near the church’s door. They are savages.
Risk of defenestration.
Oh yeah, that would certainly comfort me, sitting next to hundreds of potential threats. Wonderful idea...
